One Shot Wonders Golfers Colton Craig and Alex Bremner finished Waubonsee’s conference season strong as each carded holes-in-one, on different holes, during the final ISCC match of the season. The Chiefs finished the season in second place and finished third at the NJCAA Region IV Tournament, with Tim Schofield and Andrew Morreale qualifying for the NJCAA Division II National Tournament.
First Time to the Tourney The women’s soccer team earned the program’s first-ever trip to the NJCAA Division I National Tournament and were the first Region IV women’s soccer team to ever reach the eight-team, double-elimination tournament. Maxzine Rossler was named an NJCAA All-American for the second straight year, while Coach Leslie Ferguson was tabbed the Region IV Coach of the Year after leading the Lady Chiefs to the title for the third time in the last four years.
